Rubber, meet road. Originally designed for racecar drivers and then adopted by upper class motorists, these slipper-like loafers were just too good to keep in the car.

They say jet-setting Europeans were the first to wear them as street shoes, pioneering the trend in summertime St. Tropez. By the 1960s, the look had caught on everywhere, making them a warm weather favorite on every continent. Ours are crafted using a traditional moccasin construction—a time-tested technique that started in New England. This method ensures that the exceptionally plush leather wraps around the entire foot, cradling it for a sock-like fit. Drivers generally feature one of two kinds of soles. The more traditional styles are nubbed (also called punch-through because of the way the nubs come through the leather outsole); these are more flexible and have a barefoot feel. The second type, called a unit outsole, is more substantial, and built from a single piece of rubber.

Perfect shoe for business casual dress for my son who is finishing his sophmore year at Clemson University. He can wear these with khaki's for his summer internship at Borg Warner in Seneca. These are his fourth pair of the Grand Canoe shoes.

classic and comfortable. i have multiple pairs of these shoes in different colors and styles.... this pair is specifically for my father for Christmas. he liked mine so much, he demanded a pair of his own!

My son loves these shoes! He has great taste and they are really good looking. He says they are really comfortable. He wears them all the time and has the light brown also. They are a Christmas present

Very nice loafer that looks great with jeans anytime or with shorts in the summer. I feel really great about them & get looks/compliments, every time I wear them. The polished chrome bit gives them an air of sophistication that is eye-catching, without being too much. Oh & they're super comfortable! I highly recommend getting a pair of loafer socks to keep your feet dry--just Google them, they'll change your loafer life, lol.
